Hellooooo my lovely dA friends!!!

Well it's only taken me a couple of months to write a new journal, so you can just imagine how much drawing I've been doing.... NONE! Unfortunately setting up a new life goes fairly quickly, finding a new routine not so much

Although I've been unemployed for three months now, being home all day doesn't necessarily mean you have loads of time I've discovered
I always dreamed of being home all day and just being able to design and draw, and now it's here, let me tell you, there's still always 'life' happening. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it and once I decided to enjoy it and not feel guilty that I was bumming around the house all day, I really love it.

My studies however do take many hours of my days and it has left me with no time for drawing. I'm confident I will get back to it one day, and also get back to regular visits to dA.

My hubby and I absolutely love our new life in Adelaide. Althought the winter is of course nothing like the European one, without a heater, let me tell you can still freeze your butt off

I'm very happy for skype though, I still get to see my Mum and talk to her regularly and don't feel so far away from the ones you miss that way.

For now, check out my Zoo campaign I uploaded and I hope to speak to you soon!!!

Hey there deviant people!!!
I bet you're all thinking, Conworth who??? It's been so long, you probably don't even remember who I am... hehehe

As you probably know, my hubby and I moved across the world three months ago and well let's say, it's been a little hectic.

The major things that have happened? Well, we're still staying with the in-laws but we both have jobs and since two days are the proud new owners of a 4,5 bedroom house, with open plan kitchen and living room, nice dining room and drumroll...... a solar heated pool and spa!

Welcome to Australia!!!

But seriously, it is an amazing blessing to be set up like this within three months, with good jobs and such luxury.

We just have to stick it out one more month with the folks while the bank prepares our money

And then it'll be renovation time. Meanwhile I haven't done any drawing for three months, just been too stuffed. But once we move into our new place, I'll have my own room to call a studio and I swear, I'm gonna get to it again.

Until then my friends.

... for a new journal!
Boy, it's been a long time!!

As you may know, my hubby and I are moving to Austalia and with all the organising and business with a full-time job I've had very little time for dA lately (and drawing too )

So hereby I apologise to you guys for the little attention you've received from me, however I can't promise it will get better. In fact, it may get worse in the next two months.

We finish our jobs half way through July and fly out the 4th Aug. Until then, I can imagine our lives will probably get busier.

So hang in there my friends, I am working on a drawing, but as opposed to the usual 8 hours a week I usually have time for, I'm now reduced to about 1 hour a week for drawing.

Hope you're all doing well.


P.s. thanks to all my new friends recently. I've had quite a few new watchers and I just wanted to give you a big thanks and hug!!

So these two are the winners of my last journal, in which I said that the 10,000th page view gets a feature. (and those just before and after as well)

Gabriella was so nice as to donate her feature.
She asked me to donate it to Jeremy

So here goes. Jeremy is 15 but already a gifted artist in my opinion:









And the second lucky winner is Nicolien , a very talented artist, and fellow Dutchie:









There was acutally someone else, , who didn't quite make the cut, but went to the trouble of sending a note with a screenshot of 10,003. So I decided to add her as well! Check out Krista's colourful gallery:







It was a long time coming these features, sorry guys, but I got there eventually.
Hope you enjoyed them!

Onwards and upwards to the next 10,000!!!!!

It's a big number for me and it's taken me quite a long time to get there (compared to some people on dA)
So whoever sends me a screenshot with 10,000 page views once I hit that number, will get a feature.
I'll also feature the one just before and after 10,000 as well.


A tiny update on my life for those who are interested.
My hubby and I are preparing to leave the Netherlands, where we've lived for 7 years now and move back to Australia.
We had initially planned to stay in Europe for about 5 years to enjoy travelling and living here.
We're in the middle of trying to sell our house, and look forward to packing up and going as soon as that's happened. Right now we've had around 7 viewers in as many weeks, so a steady flow, but no one really interested enough to make an offer. Also the market is slow at the moment, there's so much on offer.

The fun news is that my oldest brother and his wife have just decided to do the same, so we're going through the same process, which is exciting.

Hope you're all enjoying nice spring weather!!!
